No country can lay claim to so many sobriquets as Ghana. It was once the “Gold Coast” of Africa, for its extensive gold reserves. After independence from British rule, Ghana reverted back to its pride in the Ashanti Empire, renaming itself “Ghana” or “Warrior King” in Soninke language.

Ghana is currently one of the most peaceful and one of the fastest growing countries in Africa both economically and democratically. Nevertheless, these are not the only beautiful things about Ghana. This West African country has a variety of attractions that make it a great tourist destination.
